Any preferred brands, models, accessories, as well as pros and coins between products would greatly be appreciated. Oh, I would really say I have a budget at the moment so I'm open to whatever is thrown out there.

MidwayUSA just put the F1 on sale for $80. It is an entry level unit but reliable and at that price hard to pass up. I've been using one for a while and when I want to know anything other than FPS I have a spreadsheet I just put the info into to get E.S. and S.D.

Check out PACT. I've had one of the model 1's from the 80's IIRC. Never misssed a beat, still working & when you (or someone else) shewts the sensors, screens or supports replacment is dirt cheap & easy.

Yes, you will shewt it one day, I gaur-on-tee it!

I have used an Oehler and have a PACT. Both trouble free. We once put the Oehler and PACT in series at the range to see if they recorded the same, or very close, velocities. I don't recall any readings more than 1 or 2 fps different between the two...

I have an old PACT Mark III I'd let go pretty reasonable. Is both a timer and chrono. Skyscreens and all in good condition. Just bought a used Mark IV and couldn't pass up the price or I would keep the Mark III. [email protected]

I've been wanting a chrony for quite a while also. Any chance of repairing it if you shoot it?

Yeah, you simply call them, and they give you instructions. I seem to recall that I talked to the nice lady, and I sent her a check. In about a week, I got my stuff back. They're used to it. Chrongraphs get shot.

I have personally never shot mine, but I was using it at a public range and some guy down the line asked me if he could chronograph a handload. I told him "Sure, but if you hit it, you owe me $100.00." He agreed, and his second shot took it out. They guy paid up, and I called Chrony.
